Face Mask & Chill Fridays - Elle's Mugwort Mask Review

Hello Kanvas besties everywhere! Today's post is a (drum roll) product review! Hurray. Let's get started. I was feeling pretty crap last night so I decided to pamper myself with one of these things called a 'Mugwort Mask'. These are made by the Korean brand I'M FROM who use 100% plant based ingredients. I have sensitive skin and embrace minimalist ingredients so this sounded perfect to me!

 

Benefits of Mugwort Plant:

  • Can help in managing hormonal acne breakouts

  • Mugwort essence also has skin calming and healing properties

  • Great for treating skin irritation and redness

  • Anti-aging properties (what appealed to me the most)

How to use:

  1. Carefully take the sheet mask out of packaging and mould it onto your face gracefully like a ballerina (as oppose to the Incredible Hulk)

  2. Leave it on for 15-20 mins; no longer than 30 (leaving it on your face for too long may cause your skin to dry out so please do not do this!)

As soon as you put this mask on, the smell of Mugwort will hit you (not gonna liethat scent was strong). It is reminiscent of traditional Chinese herbal medicine, but organic smelling nonetheless. I let its special healing powers work its magic on my dull skin (motherhood can do this to you peeps). 

I discarded the sheet and let the essence from the mask sink into my skin overnight and I woke up feeling like a baby's bottom! Seriously, I should know because I have a life-sucking 6 month old stealing my sleep. I also couldn't believe how supple my skin felt and have been touching my face all day! My partner thinks I've taken on a whole new level of vanity and is concerned about me. Nonetheless, I love this face mask and it definitely deserves 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Thanks for reading babes! You can get this amazing mask here.

May the Skin Gods be kind to you always xx

XOXO

How to repair a damaged skin barrier (from someone who has had to repair their skin barrier multiple times)

Skin irritations and allergies are never fun, but a damaged skin barrier is a whole new level of hell. The good news, is that our skin is a resilient organ and can heal relatively quickly. The not-so-good news is that you'll need to peel back all your fancy skincare for the time being, get consistent with a simple routine, and resist putting any active ingredients on your skin until it heals. You can do it, let's get into it!

This is the first eye cream I ever used to completion

Listen, I've always been a bit sketchy on eye creams and serums. Are they actually necessary? Do you even need one? Why are they so tiny but so expensive? I'll be honest: I didn't bother during my 20s and early 30s. If it was good enough for the rest of my face, it was good enough for my eye contour area! Then my late 30s hit me like a trout slap in the face, and so did the sudden dryness, fine lines, and pilling if I dared to wear makeup.

The Best Eye Cream? We've tried it

What does an eye cream do? Well, it pretty much does what a moisturizer would. It can hydrate, soothe, treat fine lines, hyperpigmentation, etc. So do eye creams really make a difference? And is an eye cream really better than moisturizer for your face? The answer is, they can indeed make a difference to your skin AND they can be better.
